MUSKEGON COUNTY — The second of three men convicted in a pair of July pizza-driver holdups has been sentenced to prison.

Muskegon County 14th Circuit Judge James M. Graves Jr. on Monday ordered Felton Lamont Thurman, 19, of Muskegon Heights to prison for two concurrent terms of 16 to 40 years for two cases of armed robbery.

In a separate case, Graves sentenced Thurman to a concurrent term of eight to 30 years for one count of first-degree home invasion for a July 19 break-in at a home in the 2500 block of Eighth Street in Muskegon Heights.

Thurman pleaded no contest in all the cases earlier.

The first defendant, Leon Lavell Blackston, 20, of Muskegon was sentenced last month to two concurrent terms of four years, seven months to 20 years.

Thurman’s longer sentences stem from his extensive record of juvenile convictions, officials said.

The third defendant, Rodney Randall Joiner Jr., 25, of Muskegon is scheduled for sentencing Dec. 20. He pleaded no contest to two cases of armed robbery last week.

The gunpoint robberies happened July 10 and 11.

At a preliminary examination in July, victims in both holdups testified they were threatened with what looked like a real handgun, which one of the robbers — later identified as Blackston — used to hit them on the head.

In the July 11 case, the victim, an employee of Domino’s Pizza, 1697 W. Sherman, said the robbery happened when he delivered a pizza around 7:30 p.m. to a house in the 3000 block of Park Street in Muskegon Heights.

The victim said he was forced inside the house, where the man later identified as Blackston struck him several times on the left side of his face with the handgun and took money, keys to his van and his wallet.

The July 10 victim, a Pizza Hut driver, testified he had a similar experience.
